With the current version, this is not possible. I’m looking into using custom taxonomies (which can be used as a separate set of tags), and the next version will support multiple separate instances of the widget, but even then your theme would need to have a different sidebar on that one page.
Different sidebar? Hmmm, that can work I think.
I was thinking earlier that I would create a page template with a different sidebar (not widget) so that means I would be using your template tags and the parameters to exclude and include certain categories.
So then I edit that special page and use the above template page and it should do it, right?
I hope you get what I’m trying to say. =)
Hey roytanck, how do we put the parameters in wp-cumulus to exclude some categories and tags?
is it as below:
<?php wp_cumulus_insert(‘exclude=9,11,7’); ?>
Awaiting your response bro. =D
The insert function doesn’t support parameters. The shortcode does (see: http://www.roytanck.com/2009/03/11/how-to-use-wp-cumulus-shortcodes/), which can be used in a text widget with a small hack in the theme (see: http://hackadelic.com/the-right-way-to-shortcodize-wordpress-widgets).
Okay. I read this information at http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_tag_cloud.
I’m not sure now that is it possible to do an include or exclude categories or tags using WP-Cumulus.
hmmm…is there no way? I’m kinda going nuts…haha..
Okay. I’m thinking like this.
We can use <?php wp_cumulus_insert(); ?>
, right?
Can I show just the TAGS only and if I can, how do I code it into the above?
Is it:
<?php wp_cumulus_insert('mode=tags'); ?>
Hi. Any new developments on using multiple instances of WP-Cumulus?
I would LOVE to be able to do that!!
Greetings–The way my site is set up, I have pages instead of posts.
Any way to add pages to the elements that appear in the cumulus widget, along with posts and categories?
Thanks !
Kevin
